Orders placed in the early hours (before the market opens) through robin_stock on Robinhood are wrongly scheduled for the next day

Open emmanuelsalawu opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I noticed that stock orders placed in the early hours (before the market opens) through robin_stock on Robinhood are wrongly scheduled for the next day rather than scheduled for execution immediately or, at worst, when the market opens on that same day. This is not the case for orders submitted through the Robinhood App or on Robinhood's website. So, the Robinhood account is not the problem.

For example, if I submit an order to buy AAPL at 7:46 AM on Monday (with Early Hours: 7:00 to 9:30 AM) through the robin_stock and I set timeInForce='gfd', extendedHours=True and I check the status of the submitted order on Robinhood App or on Robinhood's website, it shows that the order will be executed on Tuesday. I think this should not be the behavior. Could I be missing something? I observed this behavior with rbh.order_buy_limit, rbh.orders.order, and rbh.order_sell_limit.

Any suggestions? Is there a way around this? Thank you.
